Raising Her Voice: Promoting Poor Women’s Participation in Governance
The program, implemented by ‘Bridge of Hope,’ was a part of OXFAM GB’s global initiative in Armenia. The aim of the project was to encourage poor women to participate actively and knowledgeably in local government decision-making, particularly in matters concerning the rights of children and youth with disabilities and community services. Thanks to the project, approximately 45 young women and girls with disabilities have developed their civic awareness and have become actively involved in their schools, colleges, and workplaces.
